SURREALPUNK! RPG - THE BETA

Join Our Discord

SURREALPUNK! is a TTRPG that champions creativity, flexibility, and strategic resource management. RPGs promise, “You can do anything!”—and in SP!, you truly can. Whether you want to talk your way out of danger, solve a puzzle with sheer willpower, or settle a debate with your fists, the system gives you the freedom to approach challenges your way. Every action carries weight, every resource—gear, memories, relationships—matters, and every adventure shapes who you become. Success isn’t just about rolling high; it’s about playing smart, adapting, and embracing the surreal. In SURREALPUNK!, you don’t just play a character—you shape their journey, one bold decision at a time.

What Makes This Game so Unique?

The Game Engine

SURREALPUNK! is built from the setting neutral Hyphenpunk! system.  Hyphepunk! offers guidelines for open-ended roleplaying, allowing you to think, act, and solve problems creatively—while staying grounded in a gritty, tangible ruleset. 

Playstyle is Everything

Archetypes play like classic RPG classes without their limitations; cast bloodthirst into your sword as a barbarian Mystic, ferment dissent as a Mnemonist brewer, or brawl through bureaucracy as a Quixotic Lawyer.

Creative Use of Abilities and Skills

Use brute force in an argument, charm your way through a battlefield, or solve a philosophy debate with your fists.

Conflicts Are Broad

Fights, negotiations, chases, debates, and puzzles—all are as thrilling as battle.

Failure is a Choice

You can attempt anything, and succeed if you’re willing to pay the price.

Use Your Entire Character Sheet

Every component of your character can be used to succeed from your core Traits to their lowliest piece of Gear.

A Holistic System

As a system, Hyphenpunk! is built from simple mechanics that apply across  every context, ensuring clarity and adaptability without unnecessary complexity. Once you know the basics, you can handle any situation, keeping gameplay fluid, intuitive, and open to creative roleplaying. Enjoy.
